[인포스탁데일리=김영택 기자] Krafton will present his new game ‘Callisto Protocol’ on the 2.
Callisto Protocol is highly anticipated by users as the next Krafton game to succeed PUBG.
He is attracting attention as a relief pitcher who will lead the performance of Krafton, who is in a slump.
Callisto Protocol is a survival horror game developed by Striking Distance Studios (SDS), which Krafton founded in North America in 2019.
Launching worldwide today, Callisto Protocol is set in the year 2320 on Jupiter’s moon Callisto.
The Callisto protocol is being discussed as a new project that will drive Krafton, who is in for a slow performance.
Krafton has suffered from poor performance this year due to slow mobile play.
Above all, the PUBG Mobile service has been discontinued in the Indian market which has directly impacted its performance.
Krafton also seems to expect performance improvements through the Callisto protocol.
The securities industry predicts that Callisto Protocol will be able to reach 5 million sales within the next year.
This surpasses the 4 million copies of the global hit Dead Space.
Choi Yang-oh, director of the ISD Corporate Policy Research Institute, said, “The Callisto protocol is already gaining popularity among overseas users, ranking second in PlayStation (PS) store presales in the United States.”
As for Callisto Protocol, which was recently shown at G-Star, the largest game exhibition in Korea, users and game officials have expressed their high level of perfection.
In fact, Nexon Korea CEO Lee Jung-heon, who visited G-Star’s site, also picked Callisto Protocol as the most impressive new work.
Kim Chang-han, CEO of Krafton, made no secret of his high expectations, stating, “Callisto Protocol will be a game that will solidify Krafton’s position as a global gaming company.”
